Cayenne 4x4, Sample

Holding this sample up to the light, the glaze has that lovely handmade variation you just can't judge from a screen. The 4x4 size is perfect for getting a real feel for how the texture and color will work in a backsplash, and it arrived quickly so I could test it against my countertop.

The color variation across the sample tile is more subtle than I expected, which is perfect for my kitchen backsplash idea. It feels dense and substantial, giving me confidence in the quality before ordering the full quantity.

I was surprised by how smooth and slightly uneven the surface is — it feels handmade, not mass-produced. The glaze has subtle color variations that shift depending on the light, which is exactly what I wanted to see before ordering more.
